0 1. The first doctor who died in the front line of SARS: Deng Lianxian.
SARS broke out in Guangdong. At first, people did not have a clear understanding of SARS, including doctors' direct contact with patients and no protection. Doctors are in direct contact with patients' breath and even body fluids when examining them, and the risk of infection is much higher than that of ordinary people. In the Third Zhongshan Hospital where SARS patients were admitted, all the medical staff in the infectious diseases department were infected, and Deng Lianxian, 53, was the most seriously ill.
Academician Zhong Nanshan said? The bigger worry now is the emergence of super communicators. ? Ordinary patients will only infect a few people. Super communicator? But it will infect dozens or even hundreds of people and have a very vivid name for them? Poison king? . There was such a poison king during the SARS period, and Deng Lianxian was one of the doctors who treated him and participated in the rescue. When the patient was assisted by ventilator, a large amount of sputum and blood were ejected due to serious lung infection, which polluted the whole body of Deng Lianxian and other medical staff. Shortly thereafter, Deng Lianxian was diagnosed with SARS, and the rescue was invalid.
We heard? Poison king? This name, for fear of avoiding it, can hide as far as possible, but the medical staff headed by Deng Lianxian are catching up and reaching the forefront of disease resistance. Isn't it because of him? Poison king? Refuse treatment. When he was admitted to the hospital, he must have prepared for the worst and prepared for sacrifice. In Deng Lianxian's view, this is his duty. He is duty-bound, even at the cost of his life.
02. Patient:? I'm afraid you will catch SARS from me. ?
The doctor-patient relationship is two-way. Although the contradiction is sharp now and some patients are psychologically unhealthy, the vast majority of patients are still very considerate and kind, giving doctors the courage to move forward. Wang Zhong, a Concord doctor at the front line of the Anti-Japanese War during the SARS period, told a very warm story:
Wang Zhong was embarrassed to put on strict protective clothing to face the patients who came to diagnose. In order to relieve their pressure, he chose to face these directly? Suspected patient? Without any protection. On one occasion, he received a patient, during which he examined the patient's throat according to the procedure and was directly exposed to the patient's breathing and the SARS virus spread by the patient. The patient was diagnosed with SARS in many consultations, and Wang Zhong put this matter behind him and continued to work intensively.
After a long time, SARS has disappeared, but Wang Zhong received a strange phone call:
? Dr. Wang Zhong, do you remember me? I recovered from my illness, leaving no sequelae. But my heart has been hanging, afraid that you will catch SARS from me. ?
Wang Zhong remembered the patient he had forgotten. He didn't expect that there was such a stranger in this city who had been worried about his safety. I don't know how hard it took the patient to find his contact information, nor how brave he was to ask about his body. It was not until Wang Zhong told him that he was all right that the patient was relieved and hung up.
Writing here, I suddenly thought of a post I saw somewhere. A doctor in a blood laboratory met a young male patient who was wearing a mask and never took it off. The doctor wanted to draw blood from the patient, but the patient repeatedly asked the doctor to wear an extra pair of gloves. The doctor was a little impatient and said that a layer of gloves was enough. After a while, the patient suddenly fell silent and whispered. I am HIV, and I am afraid to infect you. ?
There has never been a tearful harmonious doctor-patient relationship in this world, whether it is SARS or daily visits. But in SARS, because the patient is isolated, he is always with the medical staff who treat him, relying on each other and struggling to survive in fear of the unknown, so the relationship between them is closer and more harmonious.
Now the new pneumonia is also spreading. May everyone be healthy, may patients recover soon, may all medical staff be treated gently, and may the relationship between doctors and patients become better and better.
